Two weeks ago, 22-year-old Sushmita Ghale of Lekhnath, Kaski, went to Manung Kot in Tanahun.

“For days, Manung Kot had been trending on social media, and that was reason enough for me to go and take photos and videos for my social media,” said Ghale. “The day I was there, there were at least 200 people, and so many of us were making TikTok videos.”

Three weeks ago, when Khem Raj Lakai, a hospitality educator and tourism expert, travelled to Bandipur, he saw that the picturesque town, despite the pandemic, had plenty of Nepali tourists.
